Filipino Word - Bulilit

When I was baby sitting before for a neighbor, the mom would fondly sing to her 3 year old son, ♫ ♩ ♪ bulilit, bulilit ang liit liit!! ♫ ♩ ♪ I don't know if there's really a song like that or it was a made up song but it was kinda cute. And after to what I think was about few months, it was on a new TFC (The Filipino Channel) tv commercial. So maybe there really is a song like that.

But what does bulilit mean in English?

Bulilit means tiny. So if you also asked or are wondering what does munti mean? It means the same thing. BULILIT or MUNTI means small or tiny, a small child.

Bulilit means a small child, a very young kid.


Example 1: TAGALOG: Batang munti. 

Meaning in ENGLISH: A small child.

Example 2: TAGALOG: Halika dito bulilit. 

Meaning in ENGLISH: Come over here little guy.
